Osteoma of maxillary sinus: a case report.
Craniofacial osteomas may be located either superficially or intraosseously on any bone of the cranium or face or within a paranasal sinus. Osteomas within the paranasal sinus account for 0.01% to 0.43% of patients; of these, up to 80% occur in the frontal sinus. An osteoma of maxillary sinus is extremely rare. We describe a rare case of osteoma of a 56-year-old Asian woman in the maxillary sinus.
متن کاملMaxillary sinus osteoma: two cases and review of the literature
Osteomas are benign tumours characterized by proliferation of compact or cancellous bone. The most common site is the mandible, followed by the sinuses. These tumours are slow-growing, usually asymptomatic, and are generally discovered as incidental radiological findings. Osteomas occur commonly in frontal sinus, followed by the ethmoid and maxillary sinus, and very rarely in the sphenoid sinus...
متن کاملMaxillary Sinus Osteoma: A Rare Cause of Headache
Osteoma is a benign, slow-growing tumor characterized by proliferation of compact or cancellous bone. It is perhaps the most common benign tumor of the sinonasal system.1 Radiologic evidence of osteoma can be present in up to 1% of all radiographs2 and up to 3% of all CT scans.3 In up to 95% of the patients the osteoma is situated in frontoethmoidal region. Osteomas of the maxillary sinus repre...
متن کاملOsteoma in the Maxillary Sinus: Report of Two Cases
Two cases of osteoma arising in the maxillary sinus are reported. Both of the tumors were found incidentally during the evaluation of unrelated diseases. In a 55-year-old female patient, a bone tumor was found on CT, which was taken to rule out paranasal sinusitis. CT showed a pedunculated tumor arising from the inferomedial angle of the maxillary sinus. It was resected intramurally through the...
متن کاملA Surgical Variant of the Pre-Lacrimal Approach to the Maxillary Sinus
Introduction: When dealing with maxillary sinus pathology, some areas of the sinus remain difficult to examine. In this regard, the pre-lacrimal approach is a minimally invasive technique to reach anterolateral areas of the maxillary sinus while preserving the physiological nasal function. Materials and Methods: The present study aimed to provide technical hints relate...
